The type of treatment you have for toothache will depend on the cause of the pain, so your dentist will examine your mouth and may carry out an X-ray to try to identify the problem.
•If your toothache is caused by tooth decay, your dentist will remove the decayed area and replace it with a filling.
•If your toothache is caused by a loose or broken filling, the filling will be taken out, any decay will be removed and a new filling put in place.
•If the pulp inside your tooth is infected, you may need root canal treatment. This procedure involves removing the infected pulp and then inserting a special type of filling to seal the tooth and prevent re-infection.
•If your toothache can't be treated using these methods, or if your tooth is impacted (wedged between another tooth and your jaw), it may need to be removed.

Teeth are for life, but outer layer called enamel is not resistant to acids, so avoid foods, liquids that generate acid in mouth, also do not brush immediately after acidic drinks as enamel is soft for about 30 minutes, eg after lime juice, fruit juice.

The simplest method of removing minor surface stains is polishing, or micro-abrasion if staining is more intrinsic. Provided that your discolouration is not due to inadequate enamel exposing the dentin, tooth whitening (bleaching) is often the most effective treatment for yellow stained teeth. Advance procedures can be done with laser. Use snowdent tooth paste for whitening until then. Apply snowdent paste on the teeth. Wait for 10 to 15 min. Then brush your teeth with the same paste. Applying it overnight for better results.

having pyorrhea means deposits , bad breath from mouth . .
The best way to get rid of bad breath & improve oral health is to maintain good oral hygiene,like brushing your teeth twice a day with colgate fresh mint tooth paste ,regular rinse with Mouthwashes (listerine )after meals .
this will help to avoid the bacteria in plaque,that accumulates in the mouth,
you have to visit dental surgeon for scaling and polishing ,and maintain oral cleanliness to make sure your teeth stay healthy.

Hi Aashka
As per Guidelines it is good to change your tooth brush once in Three to four months...
But if you find bristles on your tooth brush are flared in that case you should change it Immediately and if that time period is less than 2 months so please visit a Dentist and Ask/learn proper brushing technique from him...
Thank you
Dr.Aman Bhatia
